Second Grade students enjoyed looking at artwork by American artist, Charley Harper. Harper's work includes nature related images that include bold colors and graphic shapes. We discussed how Harper used symmetry and geometric shapes in his artwork.
Students created "Cardinal Collages" by cutting out symmetrical shapes.
We added a variety of details to complete our wonderful Harper inspired collages.
